  • Turkish Governor Cancels Slaughter To Prevail And Behemoth’s Istanbul Shows Over “Societal Values”

    Governor Davut Gül has cancelled Slaughter To Prevail and Behemoth’s shows in Istanbul, Turkey. He made the move after claiming the two acts clashed with their “societal values.”

    Gül said the following:

    “No activity that corrupts society in Istanbul has ever been permitted up to this day, and it will not be permitted in the future either.”

    He also issued a press release:

    “As a result of the preparations for the concert events to be held at the Zorlu Performing Arts Center Turkcell Stage within the boundaries of our district, on February 10th at 21:30 by the group “Slaughter To Prevail” and on February 11th at 21:30 by the group “BEHEMOTH” ;

    It has been observed that the events have caused a backlash from many segments of society due to their incompatibility with our societal values.

    Therefore, pursuant to Articles 17 and 22 of Law No. 2911 on Meetings and Demonstrations and Article 32/Ç of Law No. 5442 on Provincial Administration;

    It has been decided that all kinds of concerts, festivals, group and ticketed programs, etc., events within Zorlu PSM and Zorlu Center are PROHIBITED for a period of 2 (two) days, from 00:01 on 10.02.2026 to 23:59 on 11.02.2026.

    RESPECTFULLY ANNOUNCED TO THE PUBLIC.”

    According to Bianet, Akit TV was one of the outlets condemning the concerts. That Turkish broadcaster said the following about the bands:

    “Bands named ‘Slaughter To Prevail,’ who preach satanism and steal the faith of young people, and ‘Behemoth,’ who blatantly oppose religion with their satanic attire, are coming to Turkey.”

    Slaughter To Prevail’s Alex Terrible said the following regarding those reports:

    “I have no clue what they saying but we are SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL not sliden to previl

    Also we are not satanic. We are brutal death metal band. I personally will go to Valhalla after I die . Our guitarist @thegrebfather probably will go to hell coz he is orthodox Christian. Turkey’s people I love you and respect your country and religion views. But don’t call me satanic”

    He also added the following about the cancellation:

    “I just found out about the news.

    The Turkey show got canceled because one Islamic group of people put a high pressure on select government, saying, we spreading satanic propaganda, which is completely not true.

    I believe in God. Our guitarist Jack [Simmons], he’s literally performing with the Orthodox cross on his chest. But we cannot do anything against Turkey government, and we’re a guest here. So respectfully, I don’t know what to do. It’s very sad situation.”

  • Kid Rock Shares Acapella Performance Of “Bawitdaba” As He Continues To Dispute Recent Lip Syncing Allegations

    As previously reported, fans recently accused Kid Rock of lip syncing during Turning Point USA’s “All-American American Halftime Show.” However, he later denied the allegations, claiming it looked off because the performance “was out of sync.” Now, he has gone a step further by flying out DJ Paradime for an acapella performance of “Bawitdaba” to prove his case. Rock said the following about that:

    “My halftime performance was pre recorded but performed live. No lipsycing like the haters and fake news are trying to report. When they synced the cameras to my performance on ‘Bawitdaba,’ it did not line up as I explain in this video.”

  • Down Tease New Video

    Down are planning to release a new music video on February 13. The band shared the below teaser:

  • Hellripper Premiere “Coronach” Video

    Hellripper have shared an official video for the title track of their new album “Coronach.” That effort will be released on March 27.

    James McBain commented:

    “A coronach is a vocal lament traditionally performed at funerals in the Scottish highlands. Intertwined with my own words is the poem of the same name by Sir Walter Scott, which served as an inspiration for this story: the funeral of an ambivalent and mysterious figure, revered by his community for his heroic deeds but whose life hid many dark secrets. As well as lyrically, the track is also a musical experiment for me; it was primarily influenced by late 80’s thrash metal along with bands like Bathory, Gallowbraid and Atlantean Kodex. A dash of post-punk, a fair amount of Iron Maiden-style guitar harmonies, some classical references and the haunting wail of the bagpipes fading in the distance: this song feels like the perfect farewell to the album.”

  • Knocked Loose Team Up With Rapper Denzel Curry For New Song “Hive Mind”

    Knocked Loose have teamed up with rapper Denzel Curry for a new song titled “Hive Mind.” You can find an official video for that track below. Vocalist Brian Garris said the following about the single:

    “This is something we’ve talked about doing for a long time. We wondered if we could pull it off and who would be down. In the very beginning, we said for it to work, it would have to be Denzel Curry. Because he gets it.”
